Well, it was a success! The place got packed and a great time was had by all that showed. The food was great, especially those ribs, Mmmmmm. I want to thank everyone that came and brought their families. Met John and his wife Pat, Cole and his friend Brian, Nate and his family (big family he brought the clang) Hehehe. Also got to see Tony and Laurie again, whom I haven't seen for almost a year or so, they also brought a friend Alex (sorry if its wrong), Von and his family, Gill and Cindy and my wife Sonia and son Max. I got so stuffed I bounced out of the place. I didn't even want to know what my sugar levels were, so I rolled into bed and it was good night Tico for me. Thank you all, I am sure others were there but we must have missed each other in the on going crowd.

My personal thanks go to the Chili's organization and Nadia Johnson for hosting our visit and a special thanks to the servers and staff of Chili's restaurant at the Avenue in WhiteMarsh, MD. This will repeat again in a few months (July 27th), so if you missed it last night, be watching for our next Chili's night out..... If you have a location in which we can gather for a social, please let me know, I would be more than happy to organize a visit.

Sorry I couldn't make it out Tico. I was bringing the Toyota back to life and by the time I got off work I would have got there as everyone was leaving.

Not a problem , I know it was a hell of a haul for you. There is a nextr time, July 24th, put it on your phone calander to remind you.....See the meet up for the details.

I ended up ordering food and had my brother pick it up on the way home from work. I had some things I needed to take care of so I couldn't make the drive down there.

That's cool Matt.

Let me share the message I got from the Chili's management:


"Thanks for allowing us to host this event the night was a success. July 24 is great for us. I will let you know when the check will be mailed out to your foundation. I hope everyone has a great time, and enjoyed some great food and drinks in the process…once again I can’t begin to tell you how warm and fuzzy I feel knowing that we here at Chili’s were able to give back to the community. If there is anything I can do for you please let me know.
